Super, just opened a Can of beer & saw your video was uploaded, so time to enjoy this review

The MONO vinyl is part of the vinyl box set, so it's not missing from this edition. What IS missing is a blu-ray with the Dolby Atmos/5.1/Hi Res mixes. Great video Michael. The first time I heard your opening 'more new records' I got a good laugh, 'cause it took me right back to my teen years: sneaking records past my parents and into my room. Later it would be girls...and more new records!

Thanks Michael. You’re the FIRST to show us this deluxe box - cheers 🎉. I’m one Beatles fan who’s pissed that there is no BLU-RAY included, unlike all the other 50th Deluxe editions!! So expensive, and without a Blu-ray!! I’m NOT purchasing it, especially at this price, and especially as it doesn’t include a multi surround version. Yes, I know I can purchase the digital Atmos version, however I have NO intention of streaming any music, as I want a HARD copy of my own. Rey disappointed also that McCARTNEY has released Atmos versions of His 3 McCartney albums, again NOT on a Blu-ray 😡. Enjoy your copy, especially as it’s a free, demo copy. 🎶🎸😎

What you also misunderstood is that the pricing of these boxsets are ridiculous. Beatles can learn from Pink Floyd boxsets - it is half the price, and more content.

Pretty sure you’re the only person on earth who thought there’d be an LP in the CD box set. There’s a completely separate vinyl box set with 4 LPs and an EP. There’s also a 2-CD set, a single new mix CD, a single new mix LP, and a Picture Disc. All of this has been abundantly clear from the publicity. And if I recall correctly, no previous Beatles box sets included vinyl and CD in the same package, but I could be mistaken about that.

Michael, McCartney nor Giles Martin has ever included the vinyl record in any of these CD Box sets....Giles has put out .....Sgt. Pepper/White Album/Abbey Road/and Let It be/remixed..none of them have the vinyl mixed in with the cd's. One has to purchase a SEPARATE vinyl box set which retails for a higher price. Macca does the same with his Archive Box sets that he has been putting out for I believe the last 12 years. They are all top shelf high level productions as fas as I'm concerned. Macca's next should be "London Town" or "Back to the Egg" Also Beatles fans have posted many, many , videos of unboxing all these Beatles newly mixed Box Sets, and all the Macca Archive box sets.

Loved your video I’ve ordered the same thing only thing that bugs me is no 5.1 mix, the last four Boxsets had a Blu-ray 5.1 mix otherwise next Friday can’t come soon enough

Great video Michael... and I suspect you know what's up now with the separate CD and LP editions. This was a great unboxing regardless and it's always an enjoyable watch tuning in on one of your Beatles related episodes. You're Fab, Michael! Keep on keeping on. 🥰

FYI - Peter Jackson's 'game changing' de-mixing software is none other than the open-source Spleeter algorithm + a new bit of machine learning code written specifically to pick out Beatles vocals.

Blimey was the concept of a cd box set so hard to understand- spent most of the video looking for some vinyl !

Sounds like a song in there somewhere: Ridin the Gravy Train! LOL!

Can’t wait for the rubber soul remix I’ve always liked it over Revolver and it’s my favorite Beatles album.

Trickster you… entertained me right into and through a CD unboxing. Damn you, thanks.

What’s your system for organizing that room , do you blindfold yourself ? I’m also fairly sure there is either alcohol or medication in that room somewhere, these are just observations

The Beatles box sets are always separate. No vinyl and cd are never together. Also I like the revolver box. To me idk why Apple didnt do them like the Led Zeppelin box sets. Include vinyl and the cd and have the boxes look the same oh well. Very cool though can’t wait to get the vinyl box set👍🏻

I really enjoy your videos and commentary. This is the best Beatles album for sure. I love the mono mixes, but also enjoy the two channel mono pressings that they call stereo. I may buy the vinyl edition when it's released on the 26th.

I really enjoyed this video ! thank you.. in any rate, keep em coming :) p.s. would you be so kind as to finish your thought on Aftermath" ?

Wasn't it Dennis Eaton-Hogg (in Spinal Tap)? This set, BTW, is consistent with the other Beatles remixed sets that you ONLY get vinyl in the vinyl box and you ONLY get cd (or cd/dvd) in the CD box. So if you're a fool like this one you buy the box twice. Play the cds at work, rips of same in the car, and play the vinyl at home (or keep it sealed for your grandchildrens' college fund).

Michael, first your channel always makes my day way better. At about 2:48 in you mention Kids and I instantly flashed back about 60 years. We kids, since the age of rugrats, and could walk, were relegated to records while my Dad had a Ferrograph Reel to Reel, and received prerecorded tapes through the mail. This was back in the day when transistors were not a serious device, for amplifying Music. We had a baby grand Steinway in the house too, for a constant supply of live Music as a reference. The records of the day, and my own personal collection, from the late 60's to 1982, last album I bought was Zappa's, Shut up 'n play yer guitar, NEVER compared to the notes on the tape. Don't get me wrong, I am addicted to the Music on the records I have, and still own a functioning Revox B 790 TT, and am constantly amazed by the engineering prowess of the manufacturers to devise ingenious, although silly expensive, methods to extract the information almost in a Rube Goldberg way from albums. Why hasn't analog, Reel to Reel tape ever taken off like these stamped out pieces of pvc, with all the myriad of compromises that the medium brings to the table?

You actually answered your own question! "stamped out" versus real time one at a time duplication. Tape can never be a mass market product because it can't be "stamped out". In fact, I have a copy of "Gaite Parisienne" an RCA "New Orthophonic" High fidelity tape (ECS-15) issued in 1958. Price on the box was $14.95 in 1958. In today's dollars that's about $155.00 today!
